People who find themselves on the verge of yelling at queue-jumpers or crafty colleagues could be helped by a simple exercise -- using the "wrong" hand, the Daily Mail reported.

Right-handers should get into the habit of using a computer mouse, stirring a cup of coffee or opening a door with their left hand -- and left-handers should do the opposite.

Training yourself to use the "wrong" hand seems to act as practice for other kinds of self control, such as being polite. Just two weeks of the exercises reduce the tendency to act on impulse, said a study published in the journal Current Directions in Psychological Science.

常用“生”手可提高自控力

        总是忍不住要向插队的人或狡诈的同事大吼的人只需要一种简单的运动就可以有效控制自己的情绪——经常使用不太熟练的那只“生”手。

       据英国《每日邮报》报道，《心理科学最新动向》上的研究称：惯用右手的人应该试着养成用左手使鼠标、搅咖啡、开门等习惯；相反，左撇子则应尝试多用右手。

       试着用“生”手还可以增强人们在其它方面的自控力，比如保持礼貌，而仅仅两周的练习就能使冲动行事的可能性降低。
